Choosing an Exterior Paint Color
-
Light tones include earthy colors like white or beige. They keep your house cooler because they absorb less UV rays and are also less likely to fade.
Mid-tones include muted colors like sage or a blue-grey. They aren't overwhelming and allow the exterior features to stand out.
While dark tones are perfect for a home surrounded by a lot of greenery because they provide a sophisticated contrast, they tend fade more quickly. These would include dark grey, navy, and black.
Things to consider:
- Greenery and outside colors.
- Do you want a bold accent trim or door?
- The color of your roof.
-
Do you have any external structures or features you want to highlight?
What are the underlying colors within materials on your home (brick, roof, metals)?
Do you have a lot of green shrubbery or colorful flowers?

Once you've narrowed down your preferences, or those of the HOA, we can help you choose complimenting colors to ensure a cohesive style and scheme.

Once you've narrowed it down to two color schemes, let's get some samples to see what the colors look like at different times of the day.
We'll also consider the texture of your home. Stucco can make paint look darker due to its texture while siding generally stays true to color.
